Please don′t make promises that you can't keep
Your best intentions end up hurting me
No matter what, I′ll love you endlessly
I know we're blood, but this love is bad for me

I can't tell you what I wanna say
′Cause I, I′m afraid that you won't change
Sometimes I just wanna scream in your face
But when you′re in pain, I just walk away

And my, my therapist told me to write you a letter, mmm-hmm
She said if I did, it would make me feel better
But it wouldn't do - even if I sent it
′Cause you won't get it
You′re too damn selfish, mmm

Please don't make promises that you can't keep
Your best intentions end up hurting me
No matter what, I′ll love you endlessly
But I gotta run, I gotta run from your reality
I know we′re blood, but this love is bad for me

Damn, it's hard for me to let go
Of someone I held so close, mmm
Damn, it′s hard for me to draw that line
And leave you on the other side

But my, my therapist told me to write you a letter, hmm
She said if I did, it would make me feel better, oh, oh
But it wouldn't do - even if I sent it
′Cause you won't get it
You′re too damn selfish, oh

Please don't make promises that you can't keep
Your best intentions end up hurting me
No matter what, I′ll love you endlessly
But I gotta run, I gotta run from your reality
I know we′re blood, but this love is bad for me

And when you lie (and when you lie)
There's a part of you that dies
That I′m left with (I'm left with)
It gets hectic (it gets hectic)
When you lie (and when you lie)
I wonder why I try
′Cause you can't help it
You′re too damn selfish, mmm

Please don't make promises that you can't keep
′Cause your best intentions end up hurting me
No matter what, I′ll love you endlessly
But I gotta run, I gotta run from your reality
I know we're blood, but this love is bad for me
I know we′re blood, but this love is bad for me
